We got out of there, drove up to VA exit 4/Econolodge at Skippers. It was just awful, they had nerve to ask us for $10.00 extra for our dog. The dog is by far cleaner than anything in the room. We were so tired we couldn't go on. We slept in our clothes and got out of there at 3:30 AM.
TednRobin,

Here is a great website: http://www.i95exitguide.com/lodging/index.php It will give you a list of all of the hotels at each exit. I have then chosen several of the larger towns and have gone to TripAdvisor.com to check the ratings for that area for the top 3 hotels. I keep a list of these hotels with us when we travel. Now we KNOW we'll can always find a safe, clean, reasonable hotel.
